Popup Download Manager

A popup download manager (Beta) for browser Firefox

This WebExtension doesn't replace the native browser download manager, but implements it by managing new features with its popup.

Video tutorial: https://youtu.be/gx39ZPrWw8M

This add-on is based on the extension Material Design Download Manager available on github - https://github.com/auxdesigner/Material-Design-Download-Manager

Context menu of the extension popup:

  • open the file directly from the popup;
  • open the folder where the file was downloaded;
  • go to the download page;
  • you can copy the original link where you downloaded the file
  • you can delete the file you downloaded from the hard disk, directly from the popup;
  • remove the downloaded file from the list.

    Also in the popup is included the button to clean up the entire list of downloaded files and the button to save, in a single file as html format, the history of downloaded documents included in the same list. You can also do an advanced search of the downloaded files using the input at the head of the popup.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Popup Download Manager requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Popup Download Manager has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
